There is a lot on this week in Abingdon for Dementia Action Week. The full list is http://www.healthyabingdon.org.uk/dementia-action-week.htm. I went into the Roysse Room on Monday where there were a number of interesting stalls. Omni have a motion activated projector which allows people to interact with lots of different images and games. It can be used in care and educational settings.
The Alzheimer’s Society had a stall telling of their support and research.
Today I attended a very interesting Dementia Awareness session at 35 Ock Street. We learned more about what it is like to live with dementia and looked at ways to turn that understanding into action, recognising there is more to a person than the dementia. See Dementia Friends to find out more.
Sorry to highjack this but tomorrow ( Thursday) we’re due to vote on the EU members elections but as yet we haven’t received a polling card?
You don’t need a polling card to vote. Just turn up at your polling station.
We received ours a few weeks ago, but as Kelly says you dont need one in order to vote
